According to a new study by the Angus Reid Institute, 76% of Canadians say they’re boycotting American products.

61% of Canadians also say they’re cancelling or delaying trips to the U.S., while 86% say they’re buying more Canadian products.

“The cross-border data already proves it: Canadians are cutting back their travel to the U.S. to levels last seen during COVID-19. These numbers may drop further, considering that 3 in 5 Canadians say they’re cancelling or delaying plans to travel across the border. In addition to this, the proportion of Canadians saying they’re boycotting American products or buying more Canadian products is already high and appears to be growing.”

    Democrats who think they can just elect Mitt Romney or whatever and call it even are gonna be in for a surprise. Lasting damage has been done. Without justice and consequences for the perpetrators and major systemic changes US leadership is gone.

    They’ll try to maintain hegemony by force, but then they’ll see what Afghanistan or Vietnam might have been like if they were next door with easy access across the world’s largest and sparsely guarded border.

    The American people need to do something to make friends of us again.

      I don’t think it’s that simple. When the Democrats are in charge they’re friendly. But, it’s always just a matter of time before Republicans take over and Canada gets targeted again. I think we’re in for a longer period of chilly relations because the Americans just can’t be trusted.

        That’s what I mean, they have to break that cycle. Biden barely slowed things down after Trump. We want serious change. Americans are coming across as super fucked right now.
